I love that you get two colours - a bold matte red and a
sheer dusty rose, so the gift will suit any skin tone. These retail for $31
each, which is pretty pricey for a lippie, but you’re paying not only for the
name but quality. The lip pencils are creamy and apply smoothly, with Cruella
being super pigmented and Rikugien being sheer, shimmery and buildable. The
swatches below contain one swipe for Cruella and two swipes for Rikugien.

I also love the packaging – it’s not pictured above but the
top says “Happy Birthday, One Year Bolder”. I will be saving these lippies for
special occasions since they’re the perfect size to throw in a clutch for
touch-ups.
